How we handle worktop repair in Minnow End
A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged sink edge and a chipped quartz edge.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire worktop
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Minnow End
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Minnow End use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Clean spills right away
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Questions from Minnow End
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CM3 postcode.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
